Sheree and cousins: I am sorry I am not able to be there. I always enjoyed being around Uncle Dan. He always had a good word for everyone. One of my first memories of him was when I was 4 years old.

Sheree and cousins: I am sorry I am not able to be there. I always enjoyed being around Uncle Dan. He always had a good word for everyone. One of my first memories of him was when I was 4 years old. He came over on Christmas Day and walked in the house and told me, Jim, I see reindeer tracks outside there in the snow. They must be Rudolph's. Of course, for many years I believed him. Only years later did I realize that could not have happened. The reindeer were on the roof... Anyway, Uncle Dan will be missed. We've been blessed with great Uncles and Aunts who cared about us. Uncle Dan was definitely one of them. Mom asked me to mention also that he was very helpful when my dad died. Again, I am sorry I won't be there. May he rest in peace.

Sheree, Debbie, Larry, David and Family,

We were saddened to learn that Uncle Dan had died. We hope you find comfort that he is no longer suffering and is now reunited with His parents and sisters in heaven. Uncle Dan and all of you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.

Uncle Dan was my Godfather and a fond memory I would like to share happened back when Dave Ott and I were painting the basement walls of Grandpa and Grandma Hood's home on East High Street. Uncle Dan was in the basement working on another project and the banter among the three of us was very enjoyable and comical till my Godfather pointed out I was falling behind cousin Dave's output. I may have protested some but evidently I had not yet mastered the much needed skill of talking and working at the same time like Dave and Uncle Dan. Lesson learned!

Sheree, Larry, Dave and Debbie,
Our deepest sympathy to you and all the family. Our heart aches for you all. May God bless you with peace, strength and wonderful memories during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you always. We remember some great family gatherings with Uncle Dan!
Kevin and Jacqui Meenan & Family
